Looks for Match

Looks for Match (2/11)

  1. Thanks. It's a start and it's a higher charge than I was initially thinking. My COL is .1 or more less than most of those and the bullet profile is such that I'm sure my seating depth is deeper.
  2. https://www.ssusa.org/articles/2017/3/7/coated-bullets-the-future-of-lead-bullets-for-handloaders/ This is the article that lead me to think WSF would be better. They loaded the same bullets with VV 340 and Power Pistol.
  3. I've been trying to make an accurate load for my Shadow 2 to shoot a 25 yard bullseye match once a year. I shoot rimfire most of the time but this one match is center fire only. So, I'm using my Production/Multigun pistol. I have 125 Grain Missouri Bullet Company Hi-Tek SWC that I've worked up a reasonably accurate load with HP-38, but I think a slower burning powder may do a bit better. I picked up some WSF. I have to seat the bullets to 1.050 to load in my CZ properly. Anyone point me to some load data using WSF? Starting low, but with the reduced case volume I'd like to have some point of reference with this powder.
  4. I'm looking to load this bullet for my Shadow 2. The OAL that passes the plunk test is 1.045". I'm worried about case volume and pressure. I'm trying to find a starting load for HP-38. Any and all insight welcome. Bullet: http://missouribullet.com/details.php?prodId=207&category=5&secondary=8 Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
  5. Looking to order some Rudy Rydon with rx insert. They have two options. The semi rimless plastic and the metal frames. Not being able to try them I'm having a hard time deciding. There isn't much info widely available on the inserts. I'm sure we can find a Rudy sponsored shooter to chime in.
  6. Looking at a Shadow 2 for USPSA Production and 3 Gun. I just started to shoot PPC and a bullseye style match for the shooting club at work. Would the Shadow 2 meet the requirements for Stock Service Semi-auto? Specifically the sight radius and trigger pull weight? Neither are listed on the CZ webpage.
  7. Anyone shoot Police Pistol Combat that would be willing to answer some of my questions? When shooting Match 7 stage 4, what is the standing shooting position. Is it standing with cover and support? Is all of stage 4 shot in one 90 second course of fire? 18 shots, 2 reloads, 3 positions.
  8. Check that you put the spacers in properly. Flat curved flat retainer. Might help.
  9. When I ordered the MOA kit for my bolt release and she'll stop I removed the shell stop and this pin fell out. I believe it was under the bolt release button between the spring. It's the same depth as the button. Is is needed? The YouTube I watched on install didn't mention it. Second, I took my M3000 in to get the port opened up. The guy opened it up down to the lettering, and said ATF requires the manufacturer's name and country designation be left intact like the S/N. Is this true? I see lots of people are cutting into it. I think I'd like to cut down farther, but being new to 3 gun don't want to over do it. I keep catching the second shell on the top of the magazine tube when loading. Do I just need more practice or should I open the port further forward towards the magazine tube? Thanks!
  10. Ended up getting the NC-1. Found it for $68 to my door and I can add rail sections down the road if I need it. Figured having that option was worth a bit more than the double star. Nordic seems like a reputable company in the sport. Look forward to installing it and running the M&P until I feel I need to upgrade. Honestly, I'm impressed with the budget rifle though.
  11. That EMR V0-E looks to be right up my ally. For the extra money I get the QD sling socket and the ability to add a front sight if needed. I've looked into their rails in the past but I didn't want to put out $160-170 dollars for a rail on a $400 AR. This V0-E must be newer.
  12. I'm new to the 3 gun world. I don't have much experience with working on the AR-15 platform. I am looking to get into 3 gun with my M&P 15 Sport. I have a Vortex Prism on the way and want to eliminate or shave down the A2 FSB and put a cheap free float hand guard. Looking at the Double Star Rifle Length Free Float as a cheaper option. Does anyone know if a gas block will fit under this? I'm open to suggestions on free float rails and hand guards under $100 as well. Also, shave down the FSB or buy a low profile gas block? Seems like shaving down the FSB will take some work (read margin for error), but so will dimpling the barrel for the gas block. Shaved FSB is cheaper.
